Overview

This book addresses conceptual, methodological, and policy aspects of agriculture, fisheries and forests, from a 'trade and environment' perspective in a Southern European context. It contains contributions by experienced professors and researchers, which provide an in depth analysis of the likely impacts of free trade on the economic and environmental sustainability of a typical Southern EU country, following the recent CAP reform and WTO agreement. The evidence will be useful to professional researchers and research-oriented policy analysts. This is the first book to deal with trade and environment with an analytic focus on the primary production sector of a Southern European Country.
